This Gypsy guitar is strongly influenced by Bartolo Busato's (Paris, France) guitars but with my own modifications. Busato’s body is bigger than the typical Selmer body. The lower bout is about 410mm wide.
The back is a shop-made laminated arched back. The top is bent just behind the bridge. This feature is based on Selmer guitar construction. This instrument has Busato-style engraving on the head and pickguard.
